Club Membership, Training Fees and Match Fees

Membership Costs

Membership is open to all those who reach their 10th birthday by 1st September (School year 5 and upwards). New members can purchase a club vest at a reduced rate of £10 (normally £15). Social membership is by donation (minimum of £13).

Annual membership for 2018 becomes due on the 1st January 2018, for all club members, irrespective of when you joined the club. This membership covers you for the whole of the 2018 athletics and cross country seasons, until Dec 2018.

For everyone who renews their membership prior to the Annual General Meeting (AGM), 21st March 2018, there is a discounted rate available, and as an additional bonus all training events are discounted from £5 to £2. If you are not a member training fees are £5 per session. For membership that starts after 1st September 2018 (valid until the end of the year) the fees are at the reduced rate shown.

For 2018 onwards there has been a change to the membership fees - the annual fee has increased but this has been countered by the abolition of ALL match fees for league fixtures so there will be no need to pay any match fees for South West League (and Cup), British Athletics League, Southern Athletics League and Youth Development League. This change will make it simpler for all competitors and, for those who compete regularly in the leagues, the overall total of membership + match fees may well be lower than in previous years. The club will continue to provide transport to all league fixtures which will be included in your membership fee. For under 11 athletes , who are not able to compete in these leagues, we are offering FREE entry into all of the Yeovil Open Meetings during the year.

If you train regularly and wish to apread the cost then GOLD Membership would work out the best option - this includes your membership fee, England Athletics fee and all training fees and athletics league match fees for the whole year, all for a monthly amount. For 2018 we are leaving GOLD Membership fees the same as the last 2 years.

If you have difficulty paying for membership in full due to financial circumstances we can offer you access to a fund to help. For more information go to our financial assistance page.
